Help IDing this Cory

Hi Catfish enthusiasts,

I'm adopting a club member's remaining Corydora this weekend and I'd love help IDing this one so I can assemble a school and the optimal tank conditions. For now, this is the one good picture I have. Thanks much!

Re: 20g and 20g just corys tank: advice on stocking density

Thanks for the question. Usually I do 25-30% water change weekly unless I notice any concerns when I check the water chemistry.

20g and 20g just corys tank: advice on stocking density

Hi folks, I'm wondering how many corys I can comfortably keep in my 20g and 29gal tanks as I try to balance larger numbers as they seem really happy together with what's too many for a novice fishkeeper like myself to manage. Both tanks have multiple sponge filters as well as aquatic plants and poth...

When do C. paleatus fry develop adult coloring?

Hi folks, A question from a novice cory keeper: when do C. paleatus usually develop their adult "pepper" coloring? I'm raising my first set of C. paleatus fry and right now they're getting big (larger than about 1.5 cm) but still look to me like a C. aeneus. I only had C. Paleatus in this ...

Re: Wanted: C. Soldalis

Hi! Sorry to hear of your bad shipping experience. I'm actually still looking for C. Sodalis. I got a lone cory of this type at my fish club but am looking for friends for them.

Wanted: C. Soldalis

Hi all, I came home with a lone Corydoras soldalis (which a forum member kindly identified for me) at my recent fish club meeting. I'm looking to adopt or purchase 5-7 friends so this cory has a school of their own. I'm located in the NYC area. Is anyone breeding them nearish to me? Or - long shot -...

Re: Please help identify my new cory

UPDATE: Hi everyone, Thanks much for your help. A few days have passed and here are 4 new pictures (added to the original post)! The cory's color has indeed improved! (I hadn't realized as a novice fish keeper how much this could change). I hope these pictures work for identification (I hadn't wante...

Please help identify my new cory

Hi everyone, I got a lone cory at my club's fish swap and I'm keen to identify this new one so I can get them a school of their own. I'm a novice to corys and this isn't one I recognize (I presently have schools of sterbai, aeneus, and paleatus). One club member suggested this one might be a Corydor...
